Useful Tips

If you have more time, consider adding a visit to the Roman theater or La Caleta Beach. For a shorter itinerary, you can skip the Mercado Central or the Castle of San Sebastian. Don't forget to bring comfortable shoes, a hat, and sunscreen. If you're visiting in summer, be prepared for high temperatures and crowds.
